Assuming this post today is aimed at us. The Trump admin changed the rules to make it easier to replace career federal employees with political loyalists. If you’re not alarmed by Trump’s post, you should be. This isn’t about policy it’s about control. It’s “do as I say, or you’re replaced.”

We’ve talked about Operation Whirlwind before, but the mission keeps expanding, now it’s targeting scientific journals. This week, Ed Martin, the U.S. attorney for D.C., sent an unprecedented letter to CHEST, a medical journal focused on respiratory science, questioning their editorial policies

✨We plaintiffs won an injunction✨
It’s hard to put this feeling into words - but soon I’ll (hopefully) have an accurate passport, access to care abroad, and get to hug my family in Canada. This fight hasn’t been easy, but we’re still here - and trans joy is unstoppable.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds Trump’s order banning transgender people from getting accurate passports is likely unconstitutional.
The court ordered the State Department to allow correct gender markers for our clients as we continue to argue until this order is blocked for everyone.

I’ve known Chris Krebs as a nonpartisan, deeply respected public servant who made sure that our 2020 election was safe.
He told the truth, and now President Trump is going after him. It's shameful and wrong.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished. Whether we're going to let these hoodlums and grifters throw what's left of the American idea into the garbage for their own profit and gain.

What a wonderful holiday thread. Merry Christmas season to all, and to all a good night.
"'Twas the Night Before Christmas" turned 200 last year: It was first published in the Troy (N.Y.) 'Sentinel' on December 23, 1823.
Since my family has an unusually large collection of copies, here is a 🧵 of the poem—with some of the best work of illustrators from the last two centuries.
